Certificates

Certificates of Deposit (CDs) are secure, high-yield savings accounts that can help you earn more on money you don’t need immediate access to. You can open a CD with as little as $500 at terms as short as six months or as long as five years. If you are saving for something special or need a low-risk savings option for money you’re not ready to invest in the markets, a CD could be the perfect choice for you.

Do you want to give your savings a quick lift? We’re offering one-year certificates of deposit at 2.00% annual percentage yield (APY). See all our certificate rates and terms below.
